Following Race 1, and due to threatening severe weather conditions Stewards, in consultation with Club Officials, brought forward starting times for all races on today’s programme.
 
Race 1 – MAXIMUM PEST CONTROL CLASS B HANDICAP 1010m
 
Indelicacy – Connections advised that, should circumstances permit, an attempt would be made to have the mare ridden in a forward position in running today. Began very awkwardly losing ground and  raced at the rear of the field throughout. A post-race Veterinary examination revealed the presence of blood in 1 nostril. Trainer T. Rowe advised Stewards it is now the intention to retire the mare from racing. Nonetheless, they were advised that, should circumstances change, Indelicacy would be required to complete a satisfactory gallop of 1000m in the presence of a Steward prior to again being permitted to start in a race.
